AIB IS LOOKING FOR
A FEW GOOD EMPLOYEES

Arizona Industries for the Blind (AIB) was established in 1952 as a place of employment for individuals who are blind or visually impaired. Their mission is to enhance the opportunities for economic and personal independence of people who are blind through creating, sustaining and improving employment.

Today AIB is positioned to enter into new business opportunities and requires a workforce that can support these opportunities. They are working to establish a register of capable legally blind applicants whom they can contact when they are ready to hire.

Currently, they are looking for those whowant to work and have a production background in packaging and/or assembly. Additionally, they invite individuals who are blind with other skills, backgrounds and educational disciplines to submit their resume or application.

If you or someone you know is blind and interested in providing a resume or in completing an application for AIB employment, please contact Ainsley Drake at 602-269-5131, ext 200, or, for an overview of AIB, visit their website at www.azdes.gov/aib.
